BOOM BOOM Bouma BACK!
Well, well, can things get any better?!
The Official Site have some very nice news today with Wilfred Bouma saying all he needs now is match fitness as his long battle to come back from his awful ankle injury is well and truly over!
He said: 'It's been a long time since I have been able to train. I was fit again in October and raring to go but then I picked up what they call a 'turf-toe'. That was really bad luck. But now I am training again. It's just so good to be back on the pitches again. It's now a case of getting match fitness. To be fair, of course, at times it was hard but when you've got a target in your mind and something you want to achieve, it makes it a little bit easier.'
Wilf has also thanked the medical staff and fans for all their help through this tough 14 month period.
'To be fair, sometimes you hear from injured players at other clubs and they tell you they don't feel part of it. At Villa I have been out a long time but I am still in the middle of the group. There was never a point where I felt they were leaving me hanging around. That helped me a lot through my rehab and recovery.
Adding, 'The fans really did made a difference. You just want to be back involved and hear them chanting your name again. The first time I come back on the pitch and hear the fans singing it could be a bit emotional.'

It will be brilliant to see him back, a class act. Warnock has done well, but Freddy at his best is as good a LB as there is. Great to have defensive options where we had none this time last year. With Freddy and Curtis back, there is genuine competition for places, which is probably why Lowry is off to Leeds on loan.

He will be hard pushed to displace Warnock from Left back but a hell of a back up IMO!!

Great News...I never heard him get that much respect from fellow Villa fans, but maybe thats because of the people I hang around with. As solid a left back as there is. Whether he will get Warnock, who has been a revelation to me, out of th team is another matter

Hope the rumours circulating about Stephen Warnocks injury prove to be mere mischief making, but suggestions are that he could well be sidelined for quite a lengthy spell. The fact that Nicky Shorey has been recalled from his loan spell at Nottingham Forest suggests that we should possibly prepare for the worst. A lengthy Warnock absence would be a huge blow to both club and player. Good to read the news about Bouma though. Its been a long haul back for him, hopefully now the tide has turned, and he can play himself back into form. Shorey too appears to have been winning over admirers in the east midlands, so its probably a very good thing that we can both recall him, and have Freddie Bouma once again chomping at the bit.

I'm sure they will enjoy watching Luke Young play at left back very much
